If you're considering an Audi RS6, then you already know what you're looking at. This is an extremely clean example and I encourage anyone to come see it for themselves. I will try to be as descriptive as possible, but please feel free to reach out to me for any specific questions/conversations. 


First, here is what Car and Driver said about the RS6 when it was released in only 900 units to North America: 

To use the new 450-hp Audi RS 6 as your grocery-getting daily driver is to use a broadsword as a butter knife. Looking very much like your average Audi A6, the RS 6 is glorious overkill.

Audi claims this 4050-pound all-wheel-drive sedan--third in a line of RS hot-rod Audis and the first to be sold in the U.S.--sprints to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds. That's faster than the Mercedes E55 AMG by almost a second and fractionally faster than the manual-transmission BMW M5. The Audi easily reached an indicated 174 mph on the unlimited portion of the A92 autobahn near Munich. And so easily and with such supernatural stability does it maintain that speed that we found ourselves noodling with the navigation system while our co-driver bumped against the speed limiter. The limiter is set at 155 mph for all markets, so our test car had either a lazy limiter or an optimistic speedometer.

Either way, 155 mph or 174 mph, it doesn't really matter. Germany is the only place we know where one can fully exploit this car's greatest trick--providing great speed along with great composure.

What we have here is a grand German game of wonderfully irrational one-upmanship. Mercedes offers 349 horsepower in the E55 AMG? BMW has 394 horses in the M5? Then Audi will produce 450.

In the engine room of the RS is a hot version of the 4.2-liter, five-valve DOHC V-8 that powers the A8 and the upper-level A6. It has been worked over by Quattro GmbH. "Quattro" is usually a reference to Audi's all-wheel-drive system, but here it applies to a performance arm of the company that is to compete with the M group at BMW and Mercedes' AMG.

I purchased this car in April of 2012 with approximately 58,000 miles from someone who took meticulous care of the car which was used as a second car. I'm now selling because my commute has tripled to an average of 50 miles per day and I need a more fuel efficient vehicle. The following is a list of tasteful modifications and maintenance that have been done to the car. It really is perfect for someone who wants a perfectly sorted RS6. 

WARRANTY: Fidelity Warranty Services - Platinum Warranty. This is the best company in the business and owned by JM Enterprises (Largest Lexus Dealer/Distributer on the eastern seaboard). This covers just about anything is an extremely valuable for a car like this. There is a $100 deductible and all repairs are done OEM. The warranty was purchased on 6/3/11 for 3 years or 36,000 miles. The expiration is 6/3/14 or 87,998 miles. 

Upgrades (OVER $15,000 in upgrades):
Stasis Ohlins - These are the best coilovers you can buy and were installed about a year ago...incredible handling and ride quality. Fully adjustable for height/compression/rebound. I will say that there is a slight rub in the front because the car is lowered and the camber is set to reduce tire wear. I've also just installed control arms to better reduce 
REVO Stage 2 - Precats gutted and coded out
MTM Torque Converter - This is HUGE if you have done research on this car. The transmission is the weak point in the vehicle and the torque converter significantly improves the long-term health of the transmission. I want to point out that this car has ALWAYS been respectfully driven and there are absolutely NO issues with the transmission. I'm happy to take the car for an PPI or put you in touch with the mechanic locally that has worked on the vehicle for me. 
Milteck Catbach Exhaust System with Black Tips - This car sounds amazing with an incredible exhaust note. It is not at all loud with absolutely no drone. 
Hotchkiss Front & Rear Sway Bars
Stratmosphere Diverter Valves
Apikol - Rear differential mount and differential carrier bushings
Laser Interceptor - Double Front and Rear
Hard Wired for Valentine 1 & Small Display - DOES NOT COME WITH THE V1

Sound System ($5,000 System):
The car's sound system has been totally upgraded - over $5,000 in cost.  The Pioneer Avic-Z140BH head unit is wired for GPS/Navigation and Bluetooth for handsfree cellphone capability which works better than most OEM systems (you can see the picture of the mic next to the Valentine One). Car is wired for iPod/iPhone but you can also wirelessly play music from your iPhone music library or Pandora! 

Further, I have included a backup camera which the pictures show as well. The sound system includes 2 amps for amazing sound to drive the Focal front speakers and JL rear speakers and 2 10" JL subs in the trunk. The work was done at Audio Creations in Boca Raton...they are known for high-end custom work and fabrications on $100,000+ cars. The sub does NOT vibrate the car at all as it is a ported box through the arm rest...extremely tight sound and amazing clarity. At my price the system is included....Otherwise it is negotiable depending on price, etc. 

Maintenance ($5,000 in recent work): 
New Tires: Continental DSW with only 3,000 miles on them.
Refinished Rims: Wheels were refinished about 10,000 miles ago and are in near mint condition. Only 1 minor chip. 
65K Maintenance: Included transmission fluid change, spark plugs, filters, etc.
Timing Belt Change: This is a $2,000 job and included timing belt, tensioner, roller, idler roller, camshaft seals, water pump, coolant, etc. 
New Alternator: The work was done under Fidelity Warranty Services.
Brand new brake pads

Overall Condition: 
The Avus Silver paint is nearly flawless for a car this age. It has always been garaged and waxed. Paint is "deep" and one of the best Audi silvers to option. There is a small scratch on the rear-left bumper with a picture attached. The leather is in great shape and extremely supple/soft. The pictures make the leather look tremendously worse than they really are. I was "worried" as I purchased this car sight-unseen, but was very happy with the condition of the leather in person. The pictures make the leather looked "cracked" but they are simply wrinkles because the leather is so supple. Overall the interior condition is great for a car this age...most Audis (VW) have issues with the "soft keys" and matte paint around the door grips, etc., and there is definitely some signs of wear on these. I can send close up pictures of anything that is requested. Again - the pictures of the interior actually make the car look worse than it is in person.

Audi exec denies plans for turbo R8

Sat, Aug 1 2015

Sometimes smoke doesn't lead to fire. Rumors indicated Audi might drop a turbocharged engine into the latest R8, but now a top executive is throwing a bucket of cold water onto the burning speculation. "The performance potential of this current engine means we don't need to even look at turbocharging at this point," Jurgen Konigstedt, Audi development boss for V6, V8, and V10 engines, said to CarAdvice. He also said sticking with natural aspiration offered a better sound and sharper throttle response than going with forced induction. "There is less emotion with a turbocharged engine," he said. Konigstedt admitted there was a serious discussion about turbocharging the R8. The argument just didn't win out. "If we feel that people absolutely want a turbocharged engine, then we will have to consider it," he said to CarAdvice. Audi just launched a new generation of the supercar. The 2017 R8's 5.2-liter V10 will be available in two tunes: with 540 horsepower in the standard coupe or 610 hp in the Plus. Rumors have persisted about a smaller, forced induction powerplant at the bottom of the range. Some reports suggested a twin-turbo V6 behind the driver, but others said the electrically supercharged 2.5-liter inline five was a candidate. The reason for the entry-level addition was tied to lowering the taxes on the R8 in markets like China. Related Video:

Audi SQ5 TDI Plus packs more potent punch

Sun, Sep 6 2015

While the SQ5 that Audi offers in North America packs a supercharged 3.0-liter V6 burning gasoline, the version it sells back home is fueled by diesel. And now, with the Frankfurt Motor Show fast approaching, Ingolstadt is rolling out an even more potent version. The new Audi SQ5 TDI Plus upgrades on the existing version with 27 more horsepower and nearly 37 pound-feet more torque. The six-cylinder twin-turbo diesel engine now cranks out 340 hp and a mountainous 516 lb-ft. That's over a hundred torques more than even the V10 Plus version of the new R8. Burning that midnight oil will rocket the SQ5 TDI Plus to 62 from a standstill in 5.1 seconds and on to an electronically limited top speed of 155 miles per hour. All the while it will return the equivalent of 35.6 miles per gallon of diesel fuel. Compared to the gasoline version offered Stateside, the TDI Plus now produces nearly as much power but way more torque. Performance figures are now nearly identical, but the TDI Plus uses less of the (typically) cheaper fuel. The upgraded package also includes 21-inch five-spoke alloys, additional gloss black accents, restyling tailpipes, and revised interior trim. The launch of the SQ5 TDI Plus follows that of the S8 Plus performance sedan, which our sources tell us is likely – but as yet unconfirmed – to be offered in the United States. <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p> Even more power and top-of-the-line equipment: The Audi SQ5 TDI plus with 250 kW (340 hp) - The SQ5 TDI plus will launch on the German market in October 2015 - 700 Nm of torque; from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.1 seconds - On request, exclusive equipment package from quattro GmbH Audi is further expanding its range of S models. In October, the new SQ5 TDI plus* will arrive at German dealerships with more power and driving pleasure and even more extensive equipment – with 250 kW (340 hp), sport differential and 21-inch wheels. Even in its basic version, the successful Audi SQ5 TDI* comes as an SUV with the performance of a sports car. The plus version has an even higher power output. The biturbo V6 TDI produces 250 kW (340 hp) from its three liters of displacement by way of increased injection pressure. This results in 20 kW/27 hp more power compared to the SQ5 TDI. Its peak torque is increased by 50 (36.9 lb-ft) to 700 Nm (516.3 lb-ft).

Audi leading rival BMW in worldwide luxury sales race

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

If you thought competition among the German luxury automakers was hot before, it looks like things are just getting started. For the first two months of the year, Audi has sold more cars than BMW worldwide by just 383 cars.
Audi claims to have sold 242,400 vehicles through February, up 9.3 percent from last year, compared to 242,017 units from BMW, up 8.9 percent, in the same period. While the advantage is tiny, its implications could be huge because Bimmer has been the leader in the premium car segment for the last nine consecutive years. Mercedes-Benz lags behind them somewhat at 229,630 vehicles through February. According to Bloomberg, at this time last year Audi had sold 429 fewer cars than BMW.
The growth is all part of Volkswagen Group's goal to become the world's largest automaker. It currently ranks in second when its heavy truck businesses are considered. The German automotive giant also wants to be the world's leading premium carmaker. "Competition in the premium segment is more intense than ever," said Audi CEO Rupert Stadler to Bloomberg.
